In Tales of a Keweenaw Mom

, motherhood meets the Upper Peninsula--where the winters are long, the opinions are longer, and duct tape is considered a legitimate parenting tool.










With the wit and warmth of an Erma Bombeck-style story-teller, Kathleen Carlton Johnson's collection of laugh-out-loud essays celebrates the beautiful chaos of raising kids where snow days last until May and everyone owns at least three pairs of boots. From navigating small-town school politics and church potlucks to surviving family road trips that should have required a waiver,

Tales of a Keweenaw Mom

finds humor in the everyday heroics of marriage, motherhood, and Midwestern survival.










Whether she's reflecting on the mysteries of teenage logic, the competitive sport of holiday hosting, or the fine art of pretending to have it all together, her voice is honest, self-deprecating, and irresistibly familiar. You'll see your own family in these pages-the mismatched mittens, the burnt casseroles, the whispered prayers at midnight--and laugh in recognition. Because in the Keweenaw, love is fierce, coffee is strong, and if you can't laugh at yourself, someone else surely will.










"Kathleen Carlton Johnson's Tales of a Keweenaw Mom resonates with family-friendly readers who love to laugh. Her stories of raising four children in the wild and often snowy Upper Peninsula brim with warmth, wisdom, and antics appreciable by all."




-- Nancy Besonen, author of

"She captures the moments of insight, humor, and wonder that a parent experiences with their children. From playing tooth fairy to solving the mystery of the lost dental floss and mediating sibling arguments, this book will have all parents grinning with recognition."




--Tyler R. Tichelaar, PhD and award-winning author of
